Christmas presents mean a lot to children, bringing them joy as well as blessings and hope. This year, The Salvation Army is organising the Share the Joy Christmas Appeal 2022 to raise funds to support our community services and also to share the blessings of the festival to underprivileged communities, bringing a different and amazing Christmas to children. We aim to raise HK$1,000,000 and solicit 5,000 pieces of new, copyrighted, and unopened toys for at least 5,000 children (from low in-come families, sub-divided flat families, or beneficiary of the Comprehensive Social Security Assistance, of the School Textbook Assistance (full rate), or of the Working Family Allowance (full rate)).
Christmas Angel Programme
In this Christmas Angel Programme, we are calling for the public and corporates to donate 5,000 pieces of toys in total. We will be inviting underprivileged children (from low in-come families, sub-divided flat families, or beneficiary of the Comprehensive Social Security Assistance, of the School Textbook Assistance (full rate), or of the Working Family Allowance (full rate)) to fill in a “My Christmas Wishlist”. The Salvation Army will then match their wishes with the donated toys and send them their desired gifts before Christmas. We hope to send gifts to at least 5,000 children through this programme.
